Took a look and I've been running the same but unfortunately I can only get away with PendingTradeBufferPips: 20 because of stupid Stop Levels of my account type :evil: I think I will be changing brokers in the near future. Other than that it's all :clap:

Code: Select all

   {
      ChartScaleSet(Zoom_Level);
      //A quick time frame change to force accurate display
      //per = ChartPeriod(0);
      //int nextPer = GetNextPeriod(per);
      //ChartSetSymbolPeriod(0, Symbol(), nextPer);//Change time frame
      //ChartSetSymbolPeriod(0, Symbol(), per);//reset time frame      
   }//if (scale != Zoom_Level)
over the top of the existing block.

Steve, you beat me by 8 minutes with this. As a non-coder and humble lurker, I went searching in the code and tried by replacing the (zero) after ChartScaleSet by the red text (Zoom_Level) and had an instant Aha!-moment when recompiling gave zero errors! Not that I ever will be a programmer, but it gives me huge satisfaction finding out things like this by myself.
Cheers,
Thomasmore

Thanks, I have demo accounts with them but due to the ease of moving funds in my currency and various other reasons I have to use my current broker. Trust me, building equity and moving as soon as I can.

Hey Dexonite, I also have to get around those silly SL/TP rules with one of my brokers as I use a cent account there. My suggestion is to trade using your Global Prime demo and setup a Trade Copier to open and close trades on your live account. SL limitations --> out the window.

That is what I am doing while I build up my funds to eventually move to GP.

V 1i is in post 1.

I happened to be watching Peaky on demo at rollover time. She took trades when she was not supposed to because I had forgotten to include the usual rollover code. I have added it to 1i.

I have not added this to the user guide yet, so noobs follow the instructions in the inputs window.

Somehow, I lost the code to correct the take profit when Peaky sends a fill the gap trade in 1i. I have fixed this.

If you downloaded 1i before reading this, then redownload. If in doubt, redownload anyhow.

Sorry about that.

Steve, I was also watching during rollover and Peaky dropped fill-trades on EURNZD but the TP's were acting like they're supposed to, I'm using the first 1i that was posted.

First of all, thanks Steve! I just so happened to be working through the Captains work when you posted Peaky, so have been running on demo for a few weeks and been playing with the settings for better understanding :good:

Just in the latest Peaky, did you intend to hide the TakeProfitPips input? Also fyi, just looks like the latest Peaky post saved with the 15m presets, rather than 1hr presets as previous.

Again, appreciate everything you do Steve, from the forum itself, to the generosity, to the humble 'still learning too' attitude, which keeps me from feeling like a total dunce.
